Optimum Sports Nutrition

by Dr. Michael Colgan.

this review was sent in by a reader:

Ok, so it's got a lot of info for endurance athletes and other Olympic
sports, but great info on Vitamin and Mineral supplementation, foodsources,
drugs, etc. Published 1993, so maybe a bit old, but all scientific, and
everything is referenced (how often do you see that?). Beware, thebook was
sponsored by Twinlabs, so expect some shameless plugging of theirproducts,
but undoubtably one of the best nutrition books i've read.

P.S. I think Arnold Schwarzenegger's "Encyclopedia of Modern
Bodybuilding" is available in a new edition. Check it out at Amazon.com
Keep up the good work.
